| Founder of Smart IT -
Anthony Levitt |
| "I understand the frustration and the complexities that technologies bear on individuals and businesses alike. It takes expertise, product knowledge and patience to get it right. And that's what we have." |
| |
| Founder of the company, Smart IT Pty Ltd, Anthony Levitt, has over 15 years in experience in the IT industry. He began his first business in his mid-twenties in the late 1990's— a Brisbane based ISP company which provided internet access to over 900 customers from the Gold Coast to Noosa. By the late 1990's he was contracted by the Department of Natural Resources to provide their regional Queensland employees training on internet and IT skills. |
| |
| After selling the ISP business, he undertook further IT studies with the view to developing his own IT Consultancy. So whilst studying part-time, he was appointed in a full-time role as the IT Manager for Centenary Motors, a Mercedes Benz and Mazda dealership based in Taringa, Brisbane. It was in this role, he was given the responsibility to design, project manage and implement an entire new IT infrastructure and network to both dealership buildings. |

The project included building the network with telephony integration, encompassing 11 IBM servers, 80 Lenovo workstations, and a CISCO IP telephone system for 120 employees.
During this almost 8 year management role, he was instrumental in developing software applications, rolling-out new IT developments as they became available, website development and later building the architectural configurations for new cabling requirements for a two year building refurbishment project.
In addition, Anthony introduced an IP surveillance system for 24/7 security, with capabilities of face-recognition and registration plate recording. |
| |
| Following this success, in 2007, he began contracting in several IT consultancy roles for various companies, along with managing large POS networks for UQ Press (University of Queensland) three campuses' bookstores. Having built a solid reputation, and a growing clientele, in 2008, Smart IT Pty Ltd was launched. |
| |
| The primary focus for Smart IT has been to provide business clients with tailored and professional IT support. Anthony also recognised during the early stages of building his company, the innovative technologies of security camera systems in an IP environment. |
| |
| This new market in surveillance systems, inspired him to develop a division of the company that can provide high resolution and high definition camera systems, that are superior both in quality and technology to the old analogue systems. These systems are now being used, around the world, by police and other government agencies for surveillance and covert operations to legally capture evidence to assist communities, businesses and also insurers with liabilities claims. |
| |
| This is an exciting market to be a part of as we see more innovative applications for this technology other than just security surveillance, such as training programs for remote or interstate locations, or usage in a medical assistance scenarios such as long distance emergencies. This IP surveillance and camera technologies require IT expertise, so the combination of these two roles, partner well together. |
| |
| Smart IT Pty Ltd, with its strong history of supplying professional IT consultancy services to numerous businesses, continues to grow, coupled with BOSS Surveillance Systems, in Brisbane, Adelaide and Melbourne. |
